"I’m delighted to inform you that the Beddington BID vote was successful" said chair Peter Whitehead.
"The average turnout for a BID ballot is 45%, we achieved 48%. The vote was 98% in favour.
"This now allows £1 million investment over five years which will enhance the whole area reflecting the values of the businesses that are based there.
"I’m so grateful for the support I have received along the way. Thank you!
"The BID doesn’t officially start until 1st February. Initially we have agreed to employ a BID Manager who will be tasked to form close links with local business, Sutton Police and Sutton Council. Along with moving many other projects forward."
